β¦ Synopsis
We studied 20 patients with cardiovascular disorders. All patients had constant systemic blood pressure and body weight > 1 week prior to the study. Cardiac output (CO), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVED), mean aortic pressure (AO), pulmonary wedge pressure (PW), mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PA), mean right atrial pressure @A), right ventricular end-diastolic pressure (RVED) were recorded during cardiac catherization.
Ten patients with RVED < 10 mmHg were classified as group 1. The re maining 10 patients with RVED > 10 mmHg were classilied as group 2. Portal profiles were studied using an

The phase differences of the hepatic vein (HV) Doppler waveform might be influenced by fibrosis and steatosis of the liver when using HV Doppler and pressure curve analysis. Because HV catheterization is invasive, we have advocated the noninvasive comparative index (QXs ratio) of the HV Doppler wave
